Bullshit. Steven Hawking can't even move his arms yet he produce more value than most people.

What we need is the social equivalent of a wheelchair and then get back to more important matters.

Social skills have nothing to do with paralysis. Steven Hawking is permitted to lack mobility all he wants so long as he has some social skills.

It's not that we can't put up with people with no social skills, it's that we shouldn't have to. If I can avoid dealing with your lack of social skills by simply not hiring you, you can be damned sure that's what I'm going to do.
